    I grew up in Dallas - I know it well, Ive been to all these neighborhoods and it didnt used to be like this. Ever since outside millionaires started moving in, theyre buying two homes side by side, tearing them down and building “mcmansions” in their place. Its getting crazy and now rent is unaffordable (not to mention the added ac cost/energy demand in huge spaces) and there is a sense of class divide which we never had before. It used to just feel like one small town. The old rich like the Caruths are fine but the new rich are changing the landscape.
    The prob with Dallas is it is boring and pretentious.

      I've lived/worked in Dallas and surrounding areas since 2005... as TheBlondeOne says, it can be boring and pretentious. It can also be intimidating due to the extremely wide variety of environments, cultures, and people.. you can literally walk from upper class neighborhoods into the slums in just a few minutes, especially downtown.

    I lived in Dallas for twelve years and there’s a common saying, ‘All hat, no cattle’, which means a lot of people in Dallas put on a shiny front to keep up with the Joneses, but actually don’t have much to show for it in reality. I heard many personal stories where people bought a $600-800K house, but it sat empty of furniture because they are house poor. I also watched hundreds of wealthy people in giant SUVs drive right past a black family with a little baby who were living under a bridge. Even though I made a modest living by Dallas standards, I was the only one who stopped and offered assistance.
    Most of those fundraisers are self-serving, rich people patting each other on the back for being so philanthropic, when as you see in this video, they buy outrageously expensive cars, homes, jewelry, private jets and as you see with the Carruth family, they didn’t even earn any of that money, his grandfather exploited farmers and the soaves they owned to gain their wealth. Super scary to see them perpetuate gun culture. This is why we have a hard time turning this state blue, families like that with so much money, power and influence are actually holding Dallas and Texas back.
    So glad I moved away from all that superficiality…

      People come to Texas because they want money. So taking money from red state and getting all the benefits of living in a red state is ok but you would still want to turn it blue because blue is better? Haha all blue states are way more poor than Texas and people don’t have such a good quality of life in blue states, they struggle more than in red states.

Their homes were huge and mostly unfurnished. The tax rolls that came out each month were dominated by them due to unpaid property taxes. Many of the properties sold for back taxes, which usually took a few years. Foreclosures and back taxes were the highest in those areas.

      They already got the wealth, and the slave system ended, it’s the government that is supposed to carry out justice for crimes committed. They tried to (40 acres and a mule promise), but did not follow through, they should do something to satisfy justice. But going after the beneficiaries of that crime seem off somehow since they worked within the law of the time, though they will still be accountable to God for their conduct.

Always judging others based on materialistic benchmarks instead of character and individuality. I prefer to be around real people who let me be myself - I can relax.

    I lived in Arlington TX, between Dallas and Fort Worth and Dallas really is one the best cities in the US. Never saw the homeless when I lived there, nothing like LA where they are everywhere. Dallas is a good mix of everything and not as sweltering as Houston. Crime isn't even that bad in my opinion, def not as bad as other cities.

      Austin used to be the cheapest city in Texas that allowed artists, hippies and musicians to come together now ATX is the most expensive city in the Lone Star State. Thanks to marketing and Hollywood.

    Dallas is by far the most overrated city I’ve ever lived in. Not saying it’s bad, its just not worth the price tag to live here. Kind of reminds of the Dallas Cowboys, over-hyped, over-valued, over-talked about. I am moving back to Houston this week where its far more affordable to live.

    South Dallas is no joke. Gangs and cartel. Don't go there if you absolutely don't need too. And then, I still wouldn't go.

    Having grown up in and around Dallas it's hysterical hearing "The houses are beautiful" playing over the ugliest suburb imaginable. This did a great job of capturing how nasty and fake all of it is. Can't wait to get out of this god forsaken city lmao.
